Fits its discription perfectly,

from Honey Brook , Pa.
Pros: Frame to Hitch Bolt holes line up perfectly
Cons: None
"I removed my old hitch & installed new one by myself in about an hour with no problems.It fit perfectly on my 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 Sport short-bed.This is an industrial duty hitch,probably the best built hitch I've ever bought. And I've purchased a few of them through the years, including brand names like Hidden-Hitch, Draw-Tite & Reese.This hitch is not the weak link between Truck & Trailer and I would recommend it to anyone"

"This hitch is much heavier and stronger than my stock GM hitch !!The fit was great. You don't need any help taking the old hitch off, but you'll need someone to help you until you get a couple bolts in this hitch.."

"I replaced the stock trailer hitch (6,000 lb rating) on my 2000 Ford F350 Super Duty Crew Cab Dually with the Curt 12,000/14,000 Class V receiver.
The removal of the old reciever took about 5 minutes (simply removed 8 bolts). The old hitch was fairly light; I performed the removal by myself on the ground without jacking up the vehicle.
However, I was unable to install the Curt hitch by myself be cause it weighs 63 lbs. While on my back I couldn't balance the hitch and get bolts started. I asked a neighbor to help.
With my neighbor's assistance the installation took approximately 30 minutes. It was easier to access some of the bolts by removing the spare tire. The stock trailer wiring harness touched the Curt hitch which was easily fixed by simply bending the wiring mounting plate about half an inch.
We torqued the grade 5 bolts to 110 ft-lbs, then the install was finished!
A very easy job overall, and the hitch looks absolutely amazing... industrial quality for sure."
